Sick Kids Telethon 1992 Bring Him Home with Michael Burgess

[@dotmacis]

My sister and I were part of the audience for this incredible performance. Unfortunately Michael passed away of cancer today at the age of 70. Rest in peace, Michael!!!!

The best duet of this song ever. Michael Burgess was not only a great underrated singer but a great humanitarian . He could never say no to any reputable cause--always giving time and resources to one and all. A remarkable human being who will be sorely missed. RIP

I knew Michael Burgess he was a wonderful person with a terrific voice. I saw him perform in Les Miz in 92 and this song forever stuck with me as a classic. Both Colm and Michael performed Bring Him home on TV in 92 and this is the first time I've watch this magical song performed in such a beautiful haunting magical way. RIP MB,

Seeing Michael Burgess was my intro to Les Mis. When It came available I watched Colm's Performance from the 10th anniversary and was blown away by his style of singing. Then Saw him In Phantom in Toronto. Fast forward to 2024. I'll be taking my niece to see the show in 2024 :)

Dazzling performance tops them all Wilkinson and Burgess bring them home

[@SerenityMiya2009]

I'm not sure if its the power of the performance bringing these tears on? Or the fact that the world has lost such a great talent.

[@daleferdinand]

+SerenityMiya2009 or both? :(

Valjean wearing Ozzy Osbourne glasses is pretty cool.

[@decadencewhimsyandsarcasm]

As much as I adored the 4 Valjeans from the les mis 25th, this is the version that ruined me

[@frogfeetproductions]

Such good vocalists.. still why are they wearing t-shirts?! It looks so weird. I have to close my eyes to listen or it's really distracting to me. ha ha ha Still, great music from one of the best musicals.

[@jamiesiple7703]

rip michael burgess he die today

[@alisondennis4098]

This bothers me because Colm Wilkinson overpowers Michael Burgess. To me, the only really good part of this whole performance is the first line sung by Michael Burgess. He has such sensitivity in his voice. His voice is gorgeous. Wilkinson is just annoying.

[@DotMcFarlane]

With all due respect (and, yes, Colm's voice is overpowering), this song wouldn't exist if it weren't for Colm as it was actually written for him 😊
